Perhaps a bundeswehr cap with the marking inside. Cloth is not from rhe war, IMO...The pigeon...

[NR72]

So Lebus, your saying its fake?

[lebus12]

If it is waffen SS, you can't find the markind inside.

Were there fakes of this detail made in the 1970s , 30 years after WW2 ?

Most certainly. How do I know? I was there in the 1970s.


Part of my collection, ca. 1974.

Indeed so!...

NR72 this is a bad fake from the 70s total rubbish.

[HPL2008]

Definitely no good.

Allow me to remark that the large stamp seen on the inside alone is enough to discredit anything as fake. It is modelled on an RZM label, which never existed as a stamped marking, but only as, well, a label.

Ok so your saying if it is Waffen SS it should be marked inside ?
